Today's widespread appeal to the faith of the fathers - Orthodoxy - is not always, unfortunately, crowned with a correct understanding of it. The fulfillment of all church regulations without understanding the essence of Orthodoxy can easily lead the believer to acquire not the god-like properties of humility and love, but directly ungodly ones: self-conceit, pride, hypocrisy. How to reach the harbor of salvation and enter the Kingdom of God is, in the words of the fathers, science from sciences and art from arts. That is why the peculiarity of Orthodoxy is so important that, unlike all other areas of modern Christianity, which explore this science according to their own understanding, it is completely based on the patristic teaching and experience. The answer to the question of what Orthodoxy is and how to live in accordance with Orthodox teaching is the subject of this book of letters from one of the remarkable ascetics of our Church of the 20th century, hegumen Nikon (Vorobiev).
